About Guillermo del Toro
Mexican filmmaker and actor
Guillermo del Toro Gómez is a Mexican filmmaker and actor. He is known for films that mix fairy tales, gothic elements, and horror, while giving the strange and the unsettling a kind of visual or poetic beauty. His work is marked by dark fantasy, insect and religious imagery, Catholic themes, and underworld motifs. He has also been noted for using practical special effects and amber lighting, and for returning again and again to monsters as symbols of power and imperfection.
